Default Accessing Font Family

Hi,
Recently I moved from Mac to PC and I installed a font family.


I opened word and I can see the font family, however I don't know how to access the fonts that are located inside it.
Can you help me?
I have attached 2 photos showing how it looks.

In Word, all you need do is select the attributes you want to apply (e.g. bold, italic). Word will manage the font file selection for you.

Ordinarily, Word's Font dropdown should show the variants; I don't know why that isn't happening in this case. How did you install the fonts?

Well, I just open the font file (.otf) and click on "Install" and after that restarted the computer.

Try selecting one or more of the variants and installing that.

I didn't get that. I have currently installed all of them.

Open the Fonts app in the Control Panel, click on a variant of the font concerned, then choose Install.

Well, the "Install" button is grayed out. So I think they are installed.

Try repairing the Office installation (via Windows Control Panel > Programs > Programs & Features > Microsoft Office (version) > Change > Repair). If that doesn't resolve things, I'm not sure what will - uninstalling/reinstalling the font, perhaps.
